lyrics

When I need to get away from feeling uptight I need to get you
when I see your red lips and that black dress look so fine
I know I want to see you
when I see you tonight everything will be fine
because I'm with you

Time to take a midnight drive let the music blast all through the night
Time to let the jet girls play all night
where you know the kids are cool and Bo Diddley rules the school

When I get that need to get that urge to come pick you up
when my day is like shattered glass I need to feel you
when I feel your skin erases the past I know I just want to be with you

Time to take a midnight drive let the wind erase our past
just turn up that radio and drive because were going
where it's cool and Bo Diddley rules the school
